Bitcoin (BTC) has regained short-term bullish momentum, trading between $82,000 and $90,000 as improved macro sentiment lifts investor confidence.
The U.S. decision to exempt key tech products from reciprocal tariffs has eased inflationary fears, triggering a risk-on rally across equities and crypto.
BTC’s break above its three-month downtrend at $84,900 marks a notable technical shift, with institutional flows further strengthening the outlook.
Exchange outflows and continued ETF accumulation suggest large-scale buyers are returning to the market, supporting a potential move toward the $85,000–$90,000 range.
However, with $85,000 acting as near-term resistance, profit-taking could spark a short-lived pullback, with $82,000 likely serving as a support floor.
Momentum indicators, including a forming MACD crossover and an RSI around 58, continue to lean positive but warrant caution near key technical levels.
Ethereum (ETH) is also benefiting from the broader risk-on environment, recovering 6% to trade near $1,650.
While ETH’s rebound could extend toward $1,800 or even test $2,000, its relative underperformance—down 65% from December highs compared to BTC’s 23% drawdown—underscores ongoing structural weakness.
Despite ETF outflows last week totaling $80 million, ETH remains range-bound, with resistance around $1,680 and support near $1,500.
The RSI hovering near 50 and a return to the $1,499–$1,800 Keltner Channel signal some technical stabilization.
Still, low trading volumes and a muted ETH/BTC ratio around 0.019 reflect caution among market participants.
Overall, ETH may continue to follow BTC’s lead, but upside potential remains constrained unless fresh catalysts emerge to reassert its narrative.
